Alliance Color in Eliminations

[dna1990]

Is there a set pattern of how color changes occur in eliminations? And/or point me to the official guides or rules concerning this topic.


So for example in QF1, Red wins. They stay red in SF1.
And presumably if Blue wins QF2, they stay blue in SF1.

But what about reverse? Blue upsets Red in QF1, and Red wins QF2. Do each retain their color (to minimize the effort), or does it follow a more set pattern following the bracket, not the possible outcomes? In other words the winner of QF1 is always red and the winner of QF2 is always blue in SF1.

I suppose the last permutation is Red wins both QF1 and QF2, it would the alliance from QF2 to switch over to blue. Yea?

Whatever the pattern, it is the same concept for SF1/SF2 going to F1?


And finally, is this set and universal in the FMS, or is it up to tournament officials?
